Hi,
I have completed my M.Tech in Chemical engineering with 73% (Distinction) in 2002. After that i have 2 years teaching experience and 6 years industrial experience including Chemical to Oil& Gas. I have working in Sulphur Recovery Unit for the past 3 years and would like to go for PhD in Chemical engineering or PhD in Oil & Gas. Which univeristy would be more suitable for me in USA or Canada. My only draw back is i have upper second class (58%) during my B.E. Chemical engineering. Please advice me.
Thanks.
Regards,
R.Anbumani
